"This new edition highlights the significance of anthropogenic factors in changing the trace element status in soils and plants. Trace Elements in Soils and Plants, Third Edition incorporates recent data from hundreds of respected sources. These data present the most recent research on topical issues such as the assessment of natural/background content of trace elements in soil; bioindication of chemical status of environmental compartments; soil remediation; and hyperaccumulation and phytoextraction of trace metals from the soil. Discussions of the health-related significance of trace elements in food are also included." "This third edition presents an overview of the principal pathways from soils to plants. The author provides the background for a more profound understanding of ways by which chemical processes operate in both polluted and unpolluted conditions of the soil-plant system."--BOOK JACKET.
